Notice board

Feature
Text or graphic "notice board" above web pages in users' browsers.

Benefit
Broadcast information to LAN users.

Description
The WebHeader feature allows the administrator to choose a text or graphic message to be placed automatically in a separate frame above each web page displayed in users' browsers. This is performed at the server level and therefore does not require any configuration of users' computers, and cannot be circumvented by end users. Administrators can use this function to display selected messages to LAN users such as internal announcements about events or activities within their organization. The WebHeader is displayed in a separate frame so as not to adversely affect the user's browsing experience. The WebHeader function can be disabled by an authorized administrator.


HTML WebHeaders

Feature
Standards based HTML WebHeaders.

Benefit
Any content that can be placed in a web page can be placed in a WebHeader.

Description
The WebHeader is a web page in its own right and occupies its own separate frame. This means that text, graphics, fields, buttons or anything else that can be put into a web page can be put into a WebHeader. Third party web page editors may be used to create WebHeaders and advanced administrators may use Javascript or specific browser plug-in features as well.


WebHeader template

Feature
WebHeader template for rapid creation of text messages.

Benefits
No special knowledge of web page formats or HTML required.
Use to quickly post time-sensitive announcements.

Description
The WebHeader function provides a template allowing the administrator to create small text messages in less than a minute. Not only does this make it possible to create WebHeader messages without any knowledge of HTML, it allows the administrator to change the WebHeader message at very short notice, for example where time sensitive information is being displayed. This alleviates the necessity of manually creating HTML WebHeader messages.


Hyperlinks

Feature
WebHeaders can incorporate hyperlinks.

Benefits
Users may point and click through to other web pages on other sites.
The WebHeader may draw users to view additional information.

Description
Because each WebHeader is a reduced-size web page, it can contain hyperlinks to other web pages. Administrators may "advertise" in-house services or events. Users can then click on the WebHeader to display specific web pages containing complementary information.
